Hey,

I am having trouble uploading images to the gallery. I am using Chrome, but tried I.E too. Multiple images just hang or a single uploads 6% and hangs. Used to work fine before. Tried several times and even left a week, still no cigar.

I've got 994 images, is there a image cap maybe?

Thanks

Are single image uploads working?

Nope. Nothing. Single images are the only images which get to 4% or something. Multiple images don't get any where.

Are any of the images lurking on this page:

Most likely problem is something cache related with the upload progress bar. Can you try uploading one, walking away for 10 mins (ignore the progress bar), then seeing if it appears on the above link after that time?

Also, no, there is no image threshold - you can upload as many as you want.

No, no images there. I've left the images before for about 10-15 mins and they do not appear in the pending upload page.

When did it stop working for you?

About 2-3 weeks ago if I remember right.

Would you be able to try it out in firefox as well by any chance?

Could you also try uploading, then the moment you hit 'upload', come to this thread and post so that I can cross reference exactly with the logs and see if anything strange is happening there.

Thanks and sorry about this!

I've tried it in I.E and Chrome so far, but I'll give Firefox a go.

I will do a test upload.

Ok, some progress. In I.E I have uploaded image DSC_0263a with 100% success.

Now just uploaded via Chrome image DSC_0263.

The only thing which has changed is I've enabled shields on Avast anti virus. Uploading may have stopped the time I disabled. Could be that stopping it..?

Strange, I cant see anything odd in the logs, I suspect it might be an issue with your connection. Has there been anything odd going on with your network/internet connection of late?

Anti-virus could be the issue, they usually dig in to everything and can cause unpredictable results.

Well since I ENABLED the shields I disabled on my anti virus, it seems to be working. A bit odd, I cannot see me disabling shields a few weeks ago would stop me uploading to here. At least it's working though.
